Download or read book School wide Positive Behavior Intervention Support Implementation and Organizational Change written by Melissa A. Brown and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This case study focused on the three-year implementation period of School-Wide Positive Behavior Intervention Support (SWPBIS), a positive approach to discipline following the Response to Intervention (RTI) model, in a rural K-8 elementary school. The purpose of the study was to explore the perceptions of teachers and support staff's perceptions on the implementation of SWPBIS and organizational change. The Burke-Litwin Causal Model of Change (1992) was the theory used for the analysis to explore how the SWPBIS implementation mediated with the transformative and transactional factors within a school organization. The focus of the literature review was to review the program effects of the systematic implementation of SWPBIS and how it related to teacher efficacy, school climate, student-teacher relationship, school leadership and student achievement. The research question of the study was: How did the implementation of the SWPBIS system at a small, rural K-8 school impact teacher efficacy, student-teacher relations, school climate, and student achievement as perceived by teachers and support staff? This descriptive case study attempted to explain the SWPBIS implementation through the eyes of school personnel during the implementation period. The research findings suggested that the SWPBIS implementation did influence the transformative and transactional factors of the school, as evidenced by improvement in student behavior, student referrals, teacher efficacy, and student achievement data.
Download or read book Handbook of Positive Behavior Support written by Wayne Sailor and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-12-02 with total page 778 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A revolution in working with difficult students began during the 1980s, with a dramatic shift away from dependence on simply punishing bad behavior to reinforcing desired, positive behaviors of children in the classroom. With its foundation in applied behavior analysis (ABA), positive behavior support (PBS) is a social ecology approach that continues to play an increasingly integral role in public education as well as mental health and social services nationwide. The Handbook of Positive Behavior Support gathers into one concise volume the many elements of this burgeoning field and organizes them into a powerful, dynamic knowledge base – theory, research, and applications. Within its chapters, leading experts, including the primary developers and researchers of PBS: (1) Review the origins, history, and ethical foundations of positive behavior support. (2) Report on applications of PBS in early childhood and family contexts, from Head Start to foster care to mental health settings to autism treatment programs. (3) Examine school-based PBS used to benefit all students regardless of ability or conduct. (4) Relate schoolwide PBS to wraparound mental health services and the RTI (response to intervention) movement. (5) Provide data and discussion on a variety of topics salient to PBS, including parenting issues, personnel training, high school use, poorly functioning schools, and more. This volume is an essential resource for school-based practitioners as well as clinicians and researchers in clinical child, school, and educational psychology.

Download or read book Successful Implementation of School Wide Postitive sic Behavior Supports in Secondary Academic Settings written by Deborah C. Schuler and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "School Wide Positive Behavior Supports (SWPBS) is a universal, school-wide prevention strategy that is presently being implemented in over 10,000 schools across the United States to reduce disruptive behavior problems through the application of positive behavior interventions, social learning, and organizational principles. SWPBS alters school environments by creating improved systems and procedures that promote positive change in students' challenging behaviors. This proactive initiative is seen as a framework, not a curriculum and is compatible with effective, existing practices that a school already has in place. The initiative is implemented in all areas of the educational facility. This literature review examined the success of implementing SWPBS into the secondary school setting. The amount of research on SWPBS in the secondary school setting is limited. Results demonstrated significant reductions in problem behaviors when SWPBS was implemented with fidelity; SWPBS can be successfully implemented and can have a positive effect on student performance."--leaf 4.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Guide to Student Achievement brings together and critically examines the major influences shaping student achievement today. There are many, often competing, claims about how to enhance student achievement, raising the questions of "What works?" and "What works best?" World-renowned bestselling authors, John Hattie and Eric M. Anderman have invited an international group of scholars to write brief, empirically-supported articles that examine predictors of academic achievement across a variety of topics and domains. Rather than telling people what to do in their schools and classrooms, this guide simply provides the first-ever compendium of research that summarizes what is known about the major influences shaping students’ academic achievement around the world. Readers can apply this knowledge base to their own school and classroom settings. The 150+ entries serve as intellectual building blocks to creatively mix into new or existing educational arrangements and aim for quick, easy reference. Chapter authors follow a common format that allows readers to more seamlessly compare and contrast information across entries, guiding readers to apply this knowledge to their own classrooms, their curriculums and teaching strategies, and their teacher training programs.
Download or read book The Key Ingredients that Support the Implementation of Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports PBIS in Schools written by Vanessa George (Graduate student) and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Positive program interventions are an essential need for students who display problem behaviors in school and in efforts to support student success, Positive Behavior Intervention Supports ("PBIS") have been used to support students who display these types of behaviors since its introduction in 1997 (Sugai & Simonsen, 2012). Creating effective classroom environments is an example of a PBIS strategy while benefits associated with PBIS include improved school climate, improved academic achievement and reductions in referrals to the office for discipline (ODR's) (Flannery et al., 2014). While numerous studies have been conducted since 1997 to describe, inform and assess outcomes associated with PBIS, the research to date has not adequately identified the specific ingredients needed to support the implementation of PBIS in schools; as such, there is an urgent need to identify these key components (Sugai & Simonsen, 2012). This graduate project conducted a systematic literature review of fifteen journal articles that met the inclusion criteria to explore what barriers are keeping schools from accessing and activate the key environmental, organizational and/or program ingredients that contribute to the success of PBIS in schools. The findings from this review indicate that the key ingredients for success are professional development, staff buy in and leadership support whereas time and money are the key barriers that get in the way of schools accomplishing their goals (or implementing PBIS to the fullest? The implications for stakeholders include ensuring time and money is available when implementing PBIS.
